Eeeeh. Just back. Wonderful weekend. Only 7 of us which was, coincidentaly, the same number that started it all 20 years ago. All singers, hikers and drinkers as well, which again was pretty much as it started. Two fantastic sessions in the pub and a brilliant walk in between - including avoiding the streams in Mirkwood and some of our party having a ride on the mystic tree!!!

The Lleyn peninsula in Wales really is a magical place. Stood by a bronze age burial chamber and watching the sun setting behind the moutains which rise from the sea was an additional bonus for me. Made me wonder who was placed within and how many times he had watched that same sun set over those same mountains.

But then I went to the pub and a few pints of mild and lots of rousing choruses soon knocked me back into shape;-)

Cheers

Home agen home agen jiggety jig. What a week-end. Walkin', drinkin', eatin',singin',2am snackin'(don't ask about the buttered liquorice allsorts or Basset -scone butties,ginger-cake in tomato sauce or the pork-pie bunging horizontal mastication session). Standing up to your knees in muddyquicksandytypestuff and gently sinking as you liberate your hip flask. "was this marked on the map then (swig)?"-------------------"Aye"-------(muddyslurpysinkybloopynoise)--------------"whereabouts?"---(swig,sswwiigg)------------------"where you're standin'"--------------"bugger!"---(swigswigswigswig)------------BLOOP! No clock, no time-table,no beach-master, no worries. Must have been good,can't remember it all. My fellow STARTURDS, Lang may ye bums reak!!

Aye, just shows doesn't it Crump. You don't need to arrange much to have fun. A place to sleep, a bog to sink in, beer to help forget...;-)

I'm happy that we managed to move back to our roots without dissapointing the good folks of Ingleton. Lets hope the management of the new venues value the free entertainment and don't start up the dreaded discos like the old ones did eh?

Cheers

Crump You should use an Orange not a pork pie. Can you please inform me what the lumpy jam was on the scone ? (a confusing range of flavours) A great weekend and abig thanks to Spot and Gnome for the time and effort they put in. Especially Spot for coming via the North Pole driving range. and to all the STARTURDS for letting me play the madolin without breaking it over my head.

Love and Hugs to all IWTSHL

Chris

Are you the same Chris that used to come to Ingleton every February with singing mates. If so I am looking to see if you are coming next year and invite you all to attend the February fund raising for the Ingleton Folk Festival that is held in October. Great weekend, lots of music and walsking etc.

Is anyone coming to Ingleton in February as in the days of yore? If so it could usefully coincide with the Ingleton Folk Festival money raising event.

Hoping
